Other Iwi Authorities (Te Tai Rāwhiti)

The term “iwi authority” is defined in the RMA only for the purposes of that Act. An iwi authority is not, therefore, necessarily
the same thing as other representative iwi organisations recognised by the Crown. Consequently entry as an “Other Iwi Authority”
does not in itself specifically imply formal Crown recognition of that group as an iwi, nor formal recognition by the Crown of that
“iwi authority” to act on behalf of that iwi.
